So I need some help with guitar

**hi_top** · 07-7-2009, 11:02 PM

Hello FFR community, I am a novice/intermediate guitar player and am looking for some easier songs to learn. I have found a few but would also like some other suggestions. Even if they are a little bit harder I can probably still play them,

Thank you in Advance

Do you play acoustic, bass, electric, what?

**hi_top** · 07-7-2009, 11:08 PM

Acoustic, and electric. I am open to almost any type of music

**hi_top** · 07-8-2009, 12:45 AM

Sorry for the double post, for every song suggested (they have to be playable by me) I will give 1k credits up to 30 songs total

I'll start you off with some nice metal:

Enter Sandman- Metallica
Symphony of Destruction- Megadeth (little more harder)
Blacklist- Exodus (pretty easy, tuning's stupid)
Forsaken- Dream Theater (solo, don't play it, you'll kill yourself trying, songs harder than the others)
Whiplash- Metallica (easy if you can alternate picking)
Sunshine of your Love- Eric Clapton or Cream I don't remember (obligatory)
Metal Command- Exodus (not sure if you could play this, but it would be badass if you could, it's not that hard though)
Man in the Box- Alice in Chains (haha, grunge, great song)
Devil in a Midnight Mass- Billy Talent (can be hard if you can't upstrum well)
Iron Man....-Sabbath (obligatory)
Crazy Train- Ozzy...(obligatory)
Drive- Incubus (pretty easy song if you know how to mute the strings well)

inb4Smoke on the Water.

OK will check em out, and send 7k your way soon

cedolad · 07-8-2009, 12:52 AM

Still adding more bud

**hi_top** · 07-8-2009, 12:54 AM

OK cool, I don't mind giving you the full 30k lol

fireking550 · 07-8-2009, 12:57 AM

Why not try some Dragonforce, have luck with that one xD

The only song actually playable made by them is dawning over a new world, everything else is sped up

**hi_top** · 07-8-2009, 12:59 AM

Lol it is easy, just a matter of speed.

cedolad · 07-8-2009, 01:01 AM

Dragonforce songs are easy as ****. The solo's are fake, and the actually riffs are just straight 16ths. Easy as **** >.> If you want hard songs, play **** like Protest the Hero.

more songs:
Trust- Megdeth (purty easy for me)
A Tout Le Monde- Megadeth (I hate this song, you might too, but it's easy)
Hangar 18- Megadeth (easy for me, solo's are hard though).

**hi_top** · 07-8-2009, 01:03 AM

Cedolad, I want stuff I can actually play the whole song, so stuff with uber fast solos aren't good lol

And I really suck at alternate picking at high speeds

**psychoangel691** · 07-8-2009, 07:05 AM

Nirvana songs are the easiest to learn

Kagami_Hiiragi · 07-8-2009, 10:38 AM

Rock songs are fun to play.
I have a bass guitar and i play mostly rock because it's faster pased.
go for rock like:

Rock and Roll Ain't Noise Pollution -ACDC
House of the Rising Sun -Animals
Nowhere Man - Beatles
Iron Man - Black Sabbath
More then a Feeling - Boston
Riders of the Storm -Doors
Champagne Supernova - Oasis
Knocking on Heaven's Door
Crazy Train -Ozzy
Voodo Child-hendrix
Fade to Black-Metallica

Chiodos has really good rifs, even if they are "screamo"

If all else fails, nirvana.
